[Intro]
Oya, feel the heartbeat, Eko spirit rise
From the streets to the skies, we come alive
[Verse 1]
Sunset paints the Lagos sky, gold and fire blend
Drums call the souls, where the city never ends
Market hustle, street bustle, stories untold
Rhythms of the ancestors, modern tales unfold
[Pre-Chorus]
Underneath the baobab, where dreams entwine
Voices lift like djembe, in perfect time
Catch the pulse, the magic’s in the air
We dance through the pain, through love and care
[Chorus]
Eko spirit, light the night, we shine so bright
Dancing through shadows, hearts taking flight
Groove like the ocean, wild and free
Sing it loud, this is our legacy
Eko spirit, feel the soul, deep in your bones
Together we rise, in these ancient tones
Hold me close, let the story unfold
In every step, the fire we hold
[Verse 2]
From the shores of Lekki to the bustling streets
Echoes of the drums, where the past and future meet
Silk threads of culture woven in the beat
Every smile, every tear, makes the song complete
[Rap-Melody Fusion]
Step light, city bright, neon meets the night
Street spice flowin’ tight, rhythm’s taking flight
From the corners of Yaba, to the heart of Ikeja
We blend the old and new, hakuna matata
Feel the sway, the play, the soulful sound
Voices rise, unbound, in this sacred ground
Every word a story, every move a prayer
We carry the fire, with love and care
[Chorus]
Eko spirit, light the night, we shine so bright
Dancing through shadows, hearts taking flight
Groove like the ocean, wild and free
Sing it loud, this is our legacy
Eko spirit, feel the soul, deep in your bones
Together we rise, in these ancient tones
Hold me close, let the story unfold
In every step, the fire we hold
[Bridge - Emotional Contrast]
When the night feels heavy, and the stars seem far
Remember the drumbeat, remember who we are
In the silence, find the strength to heal
In the dance, every wound will seal
[Chorus]
Eko spirit, light the night, we shine so bright
Dancing through shadows, hearts taking flight
Groove like the ocean, wild and free
Sing it loud, this is our legacy
Eko spirit, feel the soul, deep in your bones
Together we rise, in these ancient tones
Hold me close, let the story unfold
In every step, the fire we hold
[Outro]
Eko spirit, burn it bright, never fade away
In every heartbeat, in every sway
We’re the fire, we’re the light
Together we dance, into the night
